Trying a new thing here.

Are you too weird for normal people but not quite weird enough to be a robot or a wizard?

Do you have at least one IRL friend?

Have you had sex at some point in the past or are currently in a relationship?

Do you have a job, a car, and maybe even your own place to stay?

Come bum around in the thread and talk to other cyborgs. Full robots are welcome too, just please don't screech "normie" at us.

And yet... desperately lonely, no friends and would give anything to be alone all by myself in a small flat somewhere playing vidya and having no responsibilities.

Joke's on you, there's like 4 people here.

You like that with everyone or do you have some people you like being around?

>And yet... desperately lonely
I was like that when I was 20. Shit didn't last and I got divorced. I think I'm better off now, but I put that on the better job and no longer dealing with my ex
>>
I had an internet gf for six months and she left me out of nowhere and my life has completely fallen apart.
I wish I never experienced love, this is awful. This is somehow worse than just being a 27 year old khhv. She we weeks away from visiting. I was so close to ridding myself of the shame. Now I'm going to be a wizard.

>>83084925
The first breakup tends to be the worst. You'll get over it eventually.

>t. Been there, done that
>>
>>83084938
There's something quite sad about that, no? I'm just a jaded adult now. It won't be special next time.
She had BPD so it's going to take at least a year to get over from what I've heard.
>>
>>83084966
Mine took around three. Granted she was my highschool sweetie and we were actually married, so hopefully yours will go smoother

From experience what I can say is don't put her on a pedestal. There's a reason you aren't together any more.
>>
>Are you too weird for normal people but not quite weird enough to be a robot or a wizard?
Normal people find me absolutely repulsive. But having a job I guess I can no longer be a real robot. I hope I can be a wizard.
>Do you have at least one IRL friend?
No. Used to have a few many years ago. Didn't last long.
>Have you had sex at some point in the past or are currently in a relationship?
No
>Do you have a job, a car, and maybe even your own place to stay?
Yes job and yes car. I live in my parents attic. It is almost my own place. Not that I would show it to anyone.

psychology. my goal is to do med school open a psychiatry practice with a focus on young men.

This is a good concept. Not sure why it wasn't used before.

I like the idea of a cyborg, half-dipping into normiedom but always living on the outskirts. Cool.

>>83085886
Sounds admirable. I might even call it a passion. Any idea why you've got the ennui so bad?

It's been a constant for me. Too "cool" for the losers, too much of a loser for the normies I'm a real sigma male, huh?

I probably fit this description; see >>83085422. But I think there can be multiple variations of this concept. Cyborg isn't the only archetype available here.

its a good pick for me. ive always like helping people and i know how bad things are for men right now, me and pretty much everyone ive known has lived it. i find psych and mental illness rlly interesting too so it works.
>Any idea why you've got the ennui so bad?
loneliness mostly. not that its anything unheard of here but i havent rlly had friends for the past couple years. depression on top of that and yeah. my life's pretty empty.

Well how would you describe the archetypes?

>>83086300
I can relate to the wanting to help people and being fascinated by psychology. I joined the military though, trying to go police. Figure I'll be there for people at their absolute lowest. Hopefully I can pull some people up and out of it.

>havent rlly had friends for the past couple years. depression on top of that
I had a period like that a few years back. Divorce made it a lot worse. Thankfully I've made some friends since and gotten an okay job, so things aren't nearly as bad now

ive seen some cops go above and beyond for their jobs. think when they care that shit can rlly make a difference. seems like you'll be able to do some good.

>have any cool military stories?
Not necessarily. Didn't get a combat deployment so no real fun. I did get to shoot the Barret which was fucking cool. I also know a couple people that killed themselves, but we weren't close.

I did have a friend that had a PTSD episode and almost killed me in my own home. We're not friends any more.

>seems like you'll be able to do some good
God I hope so. We'll see how it shakes, they're supposed to get back to me some time this month.

>gives me a bit of hope to see someone here's turned it around
I figure I've had a shitty life in some ways, but living through it gives me experience that I can use to help people in places I've been before.

I am the ultimate 'cyborg'. I am 29 and had a gf before but didn't have sex. Then later I met a girl and got her into bed, but still no penetration. I am fat, weird, and have no interests. But do have a couple of friends I see occasionally, and have my own place.

Yes, yes, no, yes. Can I be an honorary member?
>>
>>83084246
Most people I've met tend to like me, but I get asked if I'm autistic a lot. But nobody wants me in their "friend group" and I don't know if it's something with my personality or if I just don't know how to join one. I can at least superficially blend in as normal. I've never had sex because I don't know how to initiate romantic relationships.

I still live with my parents, but I just got out of college, and I already have a job lined up, so I don't think that really counts against me.

I sometimes have a vague feeling that there's more to life than what I'm doing, but I'm never able to quite find it.

I think I qualify as a cyborg
>>
>>83086402
Are we creating character classes now? If normalfags are fighters and robots are wizards, these guys are the battlemages.

>Cyborg
The original and canonical in-between class, but leans more toward mage than fighter. Often tech nerds, sometimes referred to as tech wizards, but lacks the full magical power of a true wizard.

>Vampire
Because we refer to some people as daywalkers for a reason. They're battlemages like the cyborgs are, but they're more fighter than mage. Newly sired vampires have superior physical performance and shitposting abilities, but elder vampires may have greater powers like metamorphosis, hypnosis of normalfags and highly advanced meme-ing.

>Druid
Goes on nightwalks, forestwalks and such. Often believes in paganism and likes to feel in communion with nature, but the fact that he gets out of the house regularly is enough to disqualify him from full wizardry. Often uses axes as part of his battle loadout/Skyrim cosplay. Can command bears to maul feminist women.

>Rogue
The guy you thought was going to shoot up his school. Knows a lot about guns and has traps set up around his house. May also have 1337 h4x0r skills. Has watched The Matrix too many times.

>Monk
Martial arts maxxers, gymmaxxers and such frequently qualify for this archetype. Failed normies are often found here because if you can meaningfully gymmax, you're not a truecel.

>>83088142
>I don't know how to initiate romantic relationships
It's easy, all you have to do is be Chad.
>>
>>83088623
Another thing to note about me, I'm cynical about a lot of redpill/incel stuff.

You're telling me only Chads are capable of being in a romantic relationship? Are all the mid-normalfags lying to me when they tell me they have a GF?
>>
>>83088632
A lot of them are lying, yes. Normalfags lie as easily as they breathe, especially about their level of sexual success. This was the status quo for the boomers and Gen X, only beginning to dislodge with the millennials and seriously coming undone with zoomers. And even many normalfags who are in a relationship know they're in danger of losing her to Chad at any moment, which is why they simp so much and why it's often a betabux arrangement.

Why are you cynical about incel views, though? Have you not seen cases of women blatantly discriminating by looks?
>>
Posting again before I go to bed to try to keep this thread alive. Don't know if it'll succeed, but it's worth a shot.
>>
>>83088662
I find that hard to believe, I've met some of these people's girlfriends, I can go on their socials and see them together, and statistics say that 90+% of people get married at least once in their lifetimes.

I'm cynical about incel viewpoints because whenever I look more closely at the arguments they present, they fall apart. It's always half-truths, and they seem to be motivated by either resentment or a desire for an excuse for their own failures, not looking for instrumental truth. On top of all that, my personal experience proves a lot of it wrong. Women are usually pretty nice to me, and slightly ugly but charismatic men usually seem pretty successful in dating. With all this being said, I'm sure there's at least a couple incel viewpoints I agree with, but the bulk of them seem like cope.

Being attractive helps, but I think the real x-factor is something like charisma, but not quite the same, which can exist regardless of looks. "Rizz", animal magnetism, vibe, call it whatever you like. And I don't have it. But I might someday, and I won't stop looking for it until I've found it.
>>
>>83084246
>too weird for normal people but not quite weird enough to be a robot or a wizard?
Something like that, it's a mixture of underlying weirdness due to autistic tendencies but also a really uninteresting personality. I was normal enough to be invited to hang out but I wasn't missed if I wasn't there, which was the majority of the time. I still have a couple of IRL friends and also a good relationship with my family but it's a no to everything else.
>>83084329
I get wanting no responsibilities, it's supremely comfy, but wouldn't being alone make your loneliness even worse?
>>
>>83088898
>90+% of people get married at least once in their lifetimes
This isn't a meaningful statistic because the dating market for boomers and Gen X is so fundamentally different from millennials and zoomers.

Shit, I guess this is my thread. Aren't we just low-tier normies though? Or autistic faggots who can mask well enough for a time? I guess its kindof hard to classify people like us. We're not quite wizards, but definitely not high or mid-tier normies.

This should probably be dhampir, or half-vampire, because they can sometimes go out during the day but still have to drink blood.
>>
>>83084246
>Are you too weird for normal people but not quite weird enough to be a robot or a wizard?
Could mask long enough to have normie friends, relationship, and go to uni, but dropped out and lost contact with them, now a NEET that tried on and off wagie employment but eventually got bullied out of them all. More robot than cyborg now but past invalidates it I guess.
>Do you have at least one IRL friend?
No they never reached out to me when I always reached out, just gave up.
>Have you had sex at some point in the past or are currently in a relationship?
No consensual sex, am in long distance relationship now.
>Do you have a job, a car, and maybe even your own place to stay?
No.
>>
>>83088310
I'd add
>Priest
Entire day is spent on worshipping and consuming their favourite kind of media. They leave themselves empty in order to embody and worship their favourite media. Can specialize into rotpriest.
>Bard
Focused on music, can play piano or guitar or remixes music. Minor hearing loss from permanent earphones. Has a magnetism that confuses normies.
>>
>>83092383
These aren't bad, but they might be a little too close to pure mage. But then again, sometimes a guy who otherwise wouldn't be able to attract a girl or have any friends can get them if he has substantial musical talent, so Bard should probably be admitted.
>>
>>83084246
>2 friends
>Wizard. Probably could've had sex since some women try to flirt with me sometimes, but I used to be too shy and now I'm mostly just not interested. Women are too much trouble and expense for too little reward. And most of them eventually want to marry and have kids, both of which would destroy my life.
>Job in engineering. No car because walkable European city and hate driving. Live with parents because it allows me to save/invest a lot of money. Will probably retire early.
I suspect I am schizoid because I'm way too comfortable in solitude. Most of the times, my friends are the ones who reach out to me and at home I mostly sit in my room procrastinating, playing vidya or exercising. I also masturbate every day and have a high libido, but no desire for sex because of the risk, effort and spending required. I much prefer masturbation.
>>
>>83084246
I have frequent sex and am moderately well off in life, but also quite nuts and also posted on here most of my life and my brain is someone rotted.
I think I'd be much better off if I wasn't completely fucked in the head.
>>
>>83084246
Couple of friends, rarely hang out though
Own a basic car and an apartment in a big city
Master's degree, stable job, developing career
6'0 skinny-fit, even have a large dick.
ZERO attention from girls after high school

>>83084246
>Are you too weird for normal people but not quite weird enough to be a robot or a wizard?
I dont know i guess
>Do you have at least one IRL friend?
2 i consider best friends and 3 i consider friends but we all moved out into different countries and only talk over the phone/messages/mail so i guess i dont have any real relationships anymore everybody else no matter how much i hangout with them i consider "associates"
>Have you had sex at some point in the past or are currently in a relationship?
3 times
>Do you have a job, a car, and maybe even your own place to stay?
i do small jobs and college,i own a bike(a Honda CMX 250 Rebel) and a commie block in my name.
>>
>>83092474
>Job in engineering

>>83092626
>Master's degree

I have to wonder how many people across all categories of robots, cyborgs, etc. manage to complete a rigorous academic degree (i.e. not feminist basket weaving). It seems like something full wizards could have a hard time doing regardless of how inherently smart they are due to either despondency over lack of female attention or just not giving a shit because the system is kiked.

Some incels believe that good genes come in a package, so Chad is likely to also be smarter than incels, but the stereotype of the smart nerd who's hopeless at getting girls didn't come from nowhere. Of course normalfags are always trying to downplay how smart incels are due to their assholery, and fewer incels get through the academic system due to these factors, and are less likely to get hired to work in STEM fields even if they do get a degree because HR is controlled by roasties. And because of these things, incels might be seen as being dumber, partly just because normies inherently want to view them as lesser, but some incels believe it themselves despite other factors potentially coming into play here. So regardless of whether a wizard is smart or not, "battlemages" are more likely to actually get degrees and jobs in their field.
